as secretaries.
A committee was appointed con-
sisting of three from each congress

AS a basis of representation each
county was allowed one vote for
every one hundred votes, or fraction
thereof over fifty, cast for prohibition.
After the reading of a number of

A rorsthought Of Corn-Tields.

I am more than ever in Glove" With the
drill system Of putting in corn and caring
for it. 1t has advantages aside from ease
OF culture that command attention, BY
planting our usual varieties three feet
apart in the drills and one foot apart in
the rows we make q great gain in the
amount OF both stalks aud coan. Assum-
ing that ffty.four rows will be planted
upon an acre and four stalks in hill, we
get 2,9l6 hills; but by drilling three feet
apart we get seventy-two rows with ZIG
growing stalks, or IL, 552 plants "a gain OF
&, 1888 stalks, an amount which means
growing corn at profit, other things be-
ing equal. In drills half Of the marking
is saved, and if the soil was well prepared
and picked up free from trash the light
harrow can be used to great advantage in
cultivating the corn crop. 1t is much
easier to 60 over the corn field with q
light drag, with ten-ioot sweep, making
the soil still finer and killing weeds by the
million, born and unborn and then when
time to use the cultivator the soil is like
an ash heap for mellowness, and fast
work is possible with very little rolling
clods upon the corn. Perhaps we need
corn cultivator which will do good work
the most OF anything. We have all sorts
of cuItvators that go down and dig and
throw up the soil and cut off corn roots
but the close working corn cultivator that
does not go deep. but does do thorough
work and leaves the ground smooth be
hind it, is a rare tool. The big-shoveled
cultiyators leave the soil in one or two

which is serious matter in dry weather.
